family billiards Family Billiards is really the only option. You'll have to take a cab there. Its on Geary and Wood (near masonic if you mapquest it) Most of the good players are in Reno right now, so it will be kinda quiet tomorrow. The front five tables are real tight, two in back (18 & 19)...

After a bad shot- "that's a good shot....if you don't like money" or after trying to kick at a ball after the break and missing-- "Is it too late to say "push""??

efren looks at cue ball last?? I was watching a US open match (2003?) between Luat and Deuel last night with Billy I. and Buddy doing the commentary. Corey got a little funny on a ball and Buddy commented that Efren would load it up with inside and go three rails to get position and that he can...

Paul Gerni do you mean Paul Gerni the trick shot guy? That might be him.

a few guesses I would guess Cole Dixon but I don't think he is old enough, or maybe Gene Ventura but he sure ain't from Louisiana, and Mark Haddad is too young too.

I was looking at the cast on a web site and it says "the waitress" was played by Christina Sigel. Is this Mike's wife? Is this a little piece of trivia I didn't know?

It's In The Way That You Use It by Eric Clapton Do you mean "It's In The Way That You Use It" by Eric Clapton?

5280 cues I just figured out why the "5280" cues are named that... and I never reallized the 314 thing...

continuous one-pocket In an interview with Ronnie Allen he describes a game/format of one pocket where you race to a set number of points (say 30) by finishing out each rack. With the player behind at the end for the rack breaking the next rack. This could be done in a 8-12 person round-robin...

different games I saw a couple of guys playing a variation of 8-ball I had never seen before; after the break the eight ball is placed on top of a cube of chalk, if you knock the eight ball off the chalk...you loose, the rest of the game is the same as regular eight ball (obviously the eight...

Omen? Could it be an older Omen, before he started putting "Omen" on the pins. I don't know if he ever didn't, but it kind looks like his work. Just a shot in the dark.

My girl friend just bought a house in Hawaii and is looking for a pool table.... Probably only has room for a 4x8, and probably only a budget for a used table. thanks

I've always thought maybe we should take a tip from table tennis and make it a "win by two" games rule in shorter sets with the player behind breaking. With alternating or winner breaks this would take away a lot of the luck factor. Or we could adopt "Grady's Rules" (call shot, no early 9 ball...

Keith, I can't remember where, but somewhere I remember someone asking you, basically "what makes you so good?" and, if I remember correctly, part of your answer was that you used/controlled inside english better than anyone else. I still have a rough time controlling extreme inside and making...

Blud, You still hear people talk about the legendary "hit" of a Balabushka (or a Szamboti) People still say they are the best playing cues. Yet George rarely (if ever) made his own blanks, made spliced cues with straight grain maple and metal or ivory joint. These characteristics are becoming...

I don't know much but Jim Rempe mentions him in his Accu-stats straight pool instructional as one of his models, said he Frank McGowan had some of the best pattern play he'd seen, I think he said he played at the "Commodore Room" and around the New York area. I've heard the same about Irving...

Oh, I just remembered what you must be thinking of at 1st and Brannon,that was the old South Beach Billiards, been gone a long time.....
